Mystery Dungeon System (or simply "Roguelike System")
04-29-09




Summary
This script makes everything on the map turn-based.
That is to say that movement, attacks, etc. all take place turn-by-turn in a way such that a monster with a regular move speed would move at the same time as the player moves.
Everything would stop if the player stops.
It's a lot harder to explain in words than it is to show it in a youtube video and post a link to wikipedia, so that's what I'm gonna do.
It's just one of those things you'd have to see.
See "Games its been in". (each title will be a link)

Features Desired

  • Turn-based movement and actions.
  • Option to turn the script off when outside the dungeons.
  • Optional overlay map.

Mockups

This is a screenshot from Torneko's Great Adventure: Mysterious Dungeon.
Note the translucent blue map across the screen.
The yellow dot (o) is Torneko, blue dots (o) are items, and the red dot (o) is a monster (in this case a magician).
Also note Torneko's status at the top of the screen.
This screenshot displays Floor #, Level, HP, and Gold.
I would also like MP and condition to be displayed (condition as in Poisoned, Confused, etc.)
Alternatively, icons could be displayed above the player's head.
Floor # would be stored in a variable that would be added to every time the player ascends/descends a staircase.

Did you search?
No, of course not. Why else would I be requesting it?
(yes, I searched)

Where did you search?

  • RMRK
  • Creation Asylum
  • Google

What did you search for?

  • RMXP Roguelike Battle System
  • RMXP Mystery Dungeon System
  • RMXP Roguelike Script

Additional Information
I found pretty much exactly what I need in an RMVX (RGSS2) script, but I don't use VX (mostly because it sucks).
The script I found is here.
What I want to know is if it's possible to use the script in RMXP, and if not, is there some way to convert it?
Alternatively, I suppose if my only option is to use VX, will my RMXP scripts work in VX?
And - again - if not, can they be converted?

If you're going to take the time to make such a good request, you may as well read the rules -.-

Forgive my ignorance, but which rule exactly did I break? ???
(admittedly, I forgot to add "[REQUEST]" to my topic, but other than that, what have I done wrong?)

Falcon

You answered your own question :P

It sounds stupid, but it helps people when they're searching.

This does seem like a pretty intensive request. Good job with the explanation though. I hope it gets picked up for you :)
